Good to see some CW posts on the 1/32 and smaller section.

Picked this one up recently myself.

It did take CW a while to do some low vis schemes for its various aircraft, but glad that they have now.

Although, I completely understand why they did the high vis schemes first. One low vis scheme looks very similar to another one, and harder to sell as many.

Case in point. VF-41 "Black Aces" F-14 is still available for a reasonable price, whereas other newer high vis are hard to find, and fetch more money. So can't blame them for going with mostly high vis. :wink:

MIKEYT:

My Intruder arrived yesterday to accompany my other two. I had to shave the elbows of one pilot to get the canopy to close properly without squishing the pilots.

They are 1/72.

Century Wings are the premium diecast manufacturer in this scale, and they do the A-6, A-7 Corsair II, F-8 Crusader, F-14 Tomcat, and the SR-71.
